Low ZVS 12-48V 20A 1000W High Frequency Induction Heating Machine Module

Feature:

This section of induction heating using low-voltage DC power supply 12-48V

Maximum current 20A, maximum power 1000W.
Tested 53V power supply when working properly.
Because of its moderate power, can be used for small parts DIY players do hardening, annealing and other heat
treatment,
Also can be used with a graphite crucible melting gold, silver, copper, aluminum and other metals, uniform heating
fast, very convenient.
Inside diameter of the coil: 40mm
Height of the coil: 50mm
24V input with no load current of 3A
48V input with no load current of 6A
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.The higher the voltage, the greater the heating current when the same thing, the effect is better,
2.But at the same time heat is also large, so to eradicate the actual situation to select the input voltage
3., the general use of the words 24V or 36V power supply is enough.
4.It suits 12-36V power supply (not included)
-------------
I think the above means:
1. For a given part to be heated, the higher the applied voltage, the higher the wattage will be (better power transfer)
2. However, more heat is generated in the part. So, if you don't want or need all that heat select an input voltage that
best meets your needs.
3.Usually, 24 to 36 volts DC will be enough for most applications. I think they are hoping that you won't really go
beyond 36 volts, even though they say " Tested 53V power supply when working properly. " above.

4. It works with 12 to 36 volts, but the power supply isn't included.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The coil accept 40mm crucible.

Note:

1, The kit contains a full set of driving circuit elements and brass (the copper coil)

2, Buyers need to bring their own power and cooling unit.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This means that you have to supply your own power supply because it doesn't come with one. And, when they say
"bring your own cooling unit", they mean DO SUPPLY water cooling to the work coil. AND-- DO get a pretty big fan to
cool the whole circuit board.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3, The circuit board using double-sided fiberglass board, mainly copper traces are used to widen use the entire back
surface of the resonant circuit common, continuous work, please add a fan to blow down from above, to the
resonance capacitors and other components cool.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This means that they have designed the board with a large ground plane. Again, they tell you to install a
cooling fan.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4, The use of switching power supply Please note that due to high power are generally slow start function, which just
opened machine output voltage is slowly rising, while it is turned on before the induction heating circuit if the voltage
rises to 12V, because start insufficient voltage can not afford to vibration, resulting in two simultaneous conduction
mos tube so burned components.

So the first will start switching power supply voltage reaches 12V above and then access the induction
heating circuit.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This means that you have to have at least 12 volts available at the induction heater terminals immediately or
the thing won't oscillate. Instead it will just sit there drawing tons of current.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5, The volume of the object being heated inside the heating coil can not exceed 1/5 of the volume (if the heating
cylinder, then heating coil diameter less than the diameter of 1/3), or it may be due to overload or burn out the power
supply to the circuit.
-------------
I think the above (Note 5.) means:
"1/5" phrase:
The volume of a SOLID metal object MUST NOT exceed 1/5 of the volume of the object being heated. I think this
really relates to steel and maybe carbon because I can't seem to get non-ferrous materials like copper to heat up at
all. And, I don't think it's really the total volume of the part that they are talking about; it's the volume of the material
that is inside the work coil.

"1/3" phrase:
I think this part relates to heating a hollow cylinder.

Then the last part means that, if you do exceed these rules, you WILL burn the thing out.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Although this circuit can tolerate 20-30A input current moment, but do not exceed 15A when safe work, you can easily
add an ammeter between the power supply and heating driver board but always monitor the current overload.

This circuit can not only do the induction heating, the copper tube into the high-frequency transformer, is a
powerful inverter.

1, To increase the heat sink using a customized substrate as thick as 8.5mm!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This, I think, is another warning that you better not try to push the current limits or try to run in continuous
mode unless you add more heat sink.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cooling capacity is very powerful.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This means the you NEED a lot of circuit board cooling, I think-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2, Using the M4 pillars, fever smaller, more efficient.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think they are referring to the standoffs that support the copper work coil. If the copper work coil was
mounted directly to the board, I think it would heat the board up a lot more.-

Package includes:

1 x ZVS Low Voltage Induction Heating Board

1 x Brass
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This, of course means the copper work coil.-
